46、ble picture information to be transferred between graphical devices;.d) to enable picture information to be transferred between different computer graphics installations.0.3 Design requirementsTo reach these objectives, a number of design principles were adopted:a) The metafile should provide a suit
47、able set of elements for the transfer of a wide range of pictorial information.b) The metafile should address the more usual and essential features found on graphical devices directly andshould provide access to less common facilities via an escape mechanism.c) The design of the metafile should not
48、preclude extension of ISO/IEC 8632 at a later stage to cover facilitiesbeyond those included in this version of the Standard. It should also not preclude further extensions to supportfuture standards.d) The metafile should be usable from GKS (Graphical Kernel System ISO 7942) with both metafile inpu
49、t andmetafile output functions. It should include the capability to support ISO 7942 (GKS) static picture capture.e) ISO/IEC 8632 should address the needs of different applications that have conflicting requirements for size ofmetafile, speed of generation and interpretation, readability, editability and ease of transfer through differenttransport mechanisms.0.4 Design criteriaThe requirements of 0.3 were used to formulate the following criteria which were used to decide between differentdesign possibilities.a) Completeness: In any area of ISO/IEC 8632, the
